No - didn't use it full auto all the time. Only used full auto when I needed to, like responding to an ambush, firing in support of an attack, to suppress an automatic weapon, but most often nailing somebody firing from cover where I wasn't exactly sure where he was.

Rest of the time was aimed semiauto.

Since I had the last M-14, I had to strip M-60 belts to load my magazines. I used to carry seven loaded magazines, two bandoleers of M80 Ball, two M26 grenades, sometimes two LAWs or a 2-pound block of C-4, capped and fuzed for bunkers. And sometimes a .45 in my flak jacket pocket, just in case.

Fun times.
